Sericaia or Sericá

Altough it may be found all over Alentejo, the "sericaia" has its origin in Elvas, despite the fact that some believe that it has a very ancient and eastern origin. In this recipe that delighted the nuns of Elvas and Évora monasteries, the secret goes beyond ingredients: it lays on how the sweet is poured on a dish made of tin or earthenware, spoon by spoon.
